The Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines is in need of immediate amendments as the country demands stiffer provisions on creative assets to curb online piracies, said Trade and Industry Secretary Alfredo Pascual.
He said the Department of Trade and Industry will immediately make its proposed amendments available for the lawmakers to consider. Pascual has earlier said that DTI has been looking forward to amend the 27-year-old IPC to address its defects and weaknesses amid the emerging legal and technological developments.
At least two Senate bills have already been filed seeking to revise RA 8293 with provisions that will curb digital theft content and effectively address the prevalence of internet scams.
